# Assign a card to a member

> > **Requires scope** `cards:write` · **Minimum role** admin

Sets the Dueflow member who holds the card, or clears it with `memberId: null` for an organization-owned card. `memberId` is required, so a request without it is refused rather than read as unassigning. Conflicts when the card already has that holder. Dueflow-only bookkeeping; the provider keeps every card under the account owner.

  version: 1.0.0
  description: >-
    Read and write your organization's Dueflow data. Authenticate with a
    personal access token or an organization service token as a bearer
    credential; cookies are ignored. Every endpoint is also a tool on the
    Dueflow MCP server at https://api.dueflow.co/mcp, which accepts the same
    bearer tokens or an OAuth connection from ChatGPT and Claude.


    Timestamps in responses are RFC 3339, UTC, millisecond precision
    (`2026-01-31T17:04:05.123Z`). Timestamps you send are RFC 3339: send UTC
    (`Z`); some filters, such as `updatedSince`, also accept an offset.


    Responses may gain fields at any time; ignore the ones you don't know. Every
    failure answers with the `Error` envelope; branch on its `code`.
